Abstract

A cecostomy tube is normally placed in an Indiana pouch for drainage and irrigation in the postoperative period. A clinical dilemma occurs when the cecostomy tube fails or is dislodged in the early postoperative period. We present the laparoscopic replacement of a cecostomy tube in the immediate postoperative period.
